Description

Fervo is working to build the most cost-effective, repeatable geothermal power plants in the world. Delivering on this mission requires compelling, high-quality communication across every channel. Joining Fervo's Communications(CA1.1) team means shaping the public narrative of a fast-growing clean energy company, raising the visibility of our work as we reinvent how geothermal energy is delivered at scale. Join us and work alongside world-class engineers, researchers, investors, and developers in making geothermal a key pillar of our climate-friendly energy future.

We are seeking an experienced Executive Communications Lead to own Fervo's executive communications and engagement internally and externally — in writing, on stage, and in the room. This role shapes and protects the executive voice across speeches, keynotes, and high-visibility appearances as Fervo scales as a newly public company.

The Executive Communications Lead is responsible for all internal and external communication that carries an executive's name or voice — speeches, keynote remarks, talking points, and the presentations that support them. This individual will develop a conference engagement strategy to determine which conferences and speaking engagements Fervo employees should attend and speak at. You will also make sure that person walks on stage fully prepared with a clear message and a polished deck.

This is a high-trust, high-visibility role. The right candidate can translate a technical, first-of-its-kind energy story into a compelling narrative for investors, policymakers, media, and industry audiences, while working directly and confidentially with Fervo's most senior leaders under tight deadlines.

Work with conference organizers to secure speaking opportunities and manage associated logistics.

Prepare speakers ahead of each engagement, including message alignment, logistics, and rehearsal

Presentation & Materials Development

Build and design the slide decks used for conference keynotes and executive speaking engagements

Ensure all external-facing presentation materials are polished, on-brand, and aligned with Fervo's current narrative.

Write speeches and build out-of-the-box content to showcase Fervo’s groundbreaking technology and leading market position.

Manage version control and rapid turnaround on decks as messaging or events evolve

External Executive Communications Ownership

Serve as the single point of ownership for executive-level external communications, coordinating closely with Legal, Investor Relations, and Media Relations to keep messaging consistent

Advise executives on communications strategy and positioning for high-stakes external moments

Strong project management skills, able to coordinate multiple executives, events, and deadlines simultaneously

Sound judgment and discretion handling sensitive, confidential, or market-moving information

Must have a sense of humor and not take themselves too seriously

Preferred

Experience in energy, climate tech, or another technical industry translating complex topics for broad audiences

Experience supporting communications at a newly public company

Experience coaching executives on public speaking and stage presence
